Last week, I think it was, I posted about encouraging other OC/IC ISM scholars and talented others to publish more – to make our voices available and heard not only within our community, but also within a wider audience.

I’d like to take this moment to draw your attention to the work of a close friend of mine – Rev. Siobhan Houston – she’s published one book on Magdalene spirituality, and has another on the history of western esotericism on the way (to be published by Apocraphyle Press). Jordan Stratford has written two (I think that’s right) books focussing on Gnostic ideas and spirituality. Until not long ago – he also kept a great blog of the same bent.

More information on their work, is at their sites, and I believe that both of their works are available on Amazon; and in select (or shall I say selective) book stores.

I’ve said this to my friend John Plummer – one thing that I find very curious is that it is the Gnostics within the wider community who appear to be the most engaged – the most creative. While I find this stimulating (and sometimes very challenging given that I normally disagree with 90% of their theological starting points), I have a huge amount of respect for their voice, and what they contribute.
